Abstrakt: Breast cancer ranks first worldwide in cancer-related deaths in women. The percentage of breast cancer in Turkey has almost doubled in the last decade. Breast cancer treatment encompasses a broad spectrum of oncological treatments, including radiotherapy, chemotherapy and oncoplastic surgical treatments. Oncoplastic reconstruction is an integral part of breast cancer treatment, providing favorable aesthetic and psychological outcomes. In our study, the breast reconstructions of 166 patients who underwent mastectomy due to tumoral pathologies, performed by our institute between 2005 and 2023, were analyzed from various aspects. Based on our 19 years of experience, the number of breast reconstruction surgeries has increased dramatically in the last ten years; however, the repair trend has shifted to immediate and also implant-based reconstruction procedures.
